Yup, should turn easily. With the history you gave, I'd guess your tachometer
head has seized. There have been stories of new cables being too long though,
so that might be the problem.

Just to be certain, cut off a small portion of the inner core of the old cable,
and use it to try to turn the tach (or use a small screwdriver). If it still
binds, you'll need to repair/replace the tach.
